## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-17 14:20:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, 88790.xyz, was registered on 2026-02-08 through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. and is currently active. Authoritative name servers listed are a.share-dns.com, a7.share-dns.com, b.share-dns.net, and b7.share-dns.net, indicating use of a shared DNS service. DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 103.27.177.164. Analysis on VirusTotal shows that six of ninety-one scanning engines have flagged the domain, reflecting a modest but notable detection rate. The threat classification assigned is generic_phishing, and the risk level is high. Publicly available intelligence does not include a content review of the landing page, so the specific phishing vector, credential targets, or malicious payloads remain unknown. The limited detection count suggests that the site may be newly deployed or employing evasion techniques, but the presence of multiple detections confirms malicious intent. Defenders should treat 88790.xyz as hostile. Immediate mitigation steps include adding the domain and its resolving IP address to network blocklists, configuring email gateways to reject messages containing the domain, and monitoring DNS queries for the associated name servers. Continuous re-scanning on multi-engine platforms is recommended to capture any changes in detection status. Correlation with other activity from the same IP or DNS hosts may reveal additional campaign infrastructure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260717-37EB62
TLS cert SHA-256:      18a57f9b950bca83b1dc0321e87aa9f8204efcc8a15ec786aaa6852019b9f0f2

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
